sorry for another wait, school was crazy again and i didn't really have the energy or motivation to write. but here's chapter twelve, i hope it was worth it!
this chapter will end on a cliffhanger and then the next will pick up directly where this one ends.
also, i can't remember if i've already announced this, but this fic is going to end at 15 chapters. i know i said more, but i've got some other ideas that i'm super excited to write and i think ending at 15 will be satisfying for this story.
*𝕆𝕧𝕖𝕣𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝕎𝕒𝕣𝕟𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤: fluff and sexual tension.
**𝕊𝕡𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕗𝕚𝕔 𝕎𝕒𝕣𝕟𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤: awkwardness. there's a heated kiss at the very end (spoiler).
☟MY USUAL DISCLAIMER☟
stranger things and all of its characters, settings, etc. belong to the duffer brothers and netflix. i do not attempt to take credit for anything other than my original plot ideas, au's, and original characters.
A QUICK NOTE: i have a zero tolerance policy for hate and i reserve the right to delete any hateful comments and/or block the accounts responsible for them.
if you don't like what i write or how i write, then just don't read my work. it's as simple as that.

Two weeks ago, Mike and El decided to try and be friends.
And now, two weeks into it, every day was still just as hard as the first.
It was more than obvious that their feelings for one another hadn't simply just vanished when they agreed to try to be friends, and they were trying to pretend like they had.
Her friends had taken notice and relentlessly bugged El about it.
"Just tell him that you want to be more than friends! It's obvious that he likes you, too."
Eleven sighed.
"I don't think we're ready, Max. There's still a lot there in terms of negative feelings, a-and I wouldn't want to rush anything. Plus, I'm pretty sure that me calling him a 'lying, manipulative dick' was heavily implying that I'd never want to be with him again."
Max rolled her eyes. "You guys seriously need to sit down and talk through all of this."
"We already talked...sort of."
Her redheaded friend threw her head back and laughed. "You talked to him for like five minutes on the phone! That doesn't count, you need to talk to him face-to-face."
El knew that Max was right, she and Mike did need to have a face-to-face, but that was easier said then done. Despite the fact that they agreed to try and be friends, Mike and El hadn't actually really talked nor spent a ton of face-to-face time together since their phone call.
"You should invite him to the party dinner tonight at Benny's."
Max said, suddenly.
She looked over at Max with wide eyes. "Absolutely not. Everyone would hate me for bringing him, that is if he even agrees to come."
"He's talked about making amends with the party before, right? This is the perfect first step, and I know he'll come if you ask him."
Mike has wanted to talk with the party...
"Fine, I'll ask him."
Max smiled, patting her on the back. "Great! I'll see you tonight, then?"
She nodded. "See you."
Once Max left, El picked up the phone and dialed Mike's number. He picked up after a few rings.
